Daniel 11:15 — Meaning and Application

For the king of the north shall return, and shall set forth a multitude greater than the former, and shall certainly come after certain years with a great army and with much riches. {after...: Heb. at the end of times, even years}

And in those times there shall many stand up against the king of the south: also the robbers of thy people shall exalt themselves to establish the vision; but they shall fall. {the robbers: Heb. the children of robbers}

So the king of the north shall come, and cast up a mount, and take the most fenced cities: and the arms of the south shall not withstand, neither his chosen people, neither {shall there be any} strength to withstand. {the most...: Heb. the city of munitions} {his...: Heb. the people of his choices}

But he that cometh against him shall do according to his own will, and none shall stand before him: and he shall stand in the glorious land, which by his hand shall be consumed. {glorious...: or, goodly, etc.: Heb. land of ornament}

He shall also set his face to enter with the strength of his whole kingdom, and upright ones with him; thus shall he do: and he shall give him the daughter of women, corrupting her: but she shall not stand {on his side}, neither be for him. {upright...: or, much uprightness: or, equal conditions} {corrupting: Heb. to corrupt}
